Electrocushion- Cool vocals, full of depth. I enjoy the cheesy feel of this song. The fake drums are funny and I dig that crunchy guitar tone. Really dig it. Overall, I think the song could have been more eventful, after the first minute it’s just more of the same guitar and cheesy drums and I start to lose interest.
Gimp Juice-This ones my favorite. That organ tone always makes me smile. I like the meandering electric guitar, kind of has this “who cares” attitude, just floating around. While the lead vocals are not what I generally look for, a little too “sensitive man” for me, I love the backing chorus, strange yet familiar. I could see owning this bands album.
l.r.f.- The effects on the vocals do not effectively mask the fact that you are singing in my very least favorite style. Try relaxing and singing a little lower or something. Lively drums, those are what really kept me listening.
Molsen Twins-I really dig that wavy guitar tone, very dreamy. Instrumentation is choice, It’s like you’ve picked some of my favorite sounds they work together nicely. Drums, of coarse, keeping the songs energy. Normally I really dig J$ vocals (don’t confuse me with Richard) but here they are awkward, some parts seem to really stick out and not fit. Since there is some nice lead guitar I’d probably love an instrumental version of this, no offense.
Teaching Willie-Woohoo! Punk! Moe samples! “I’m choking on my own rage here” is one of my most favorite Simpson lines and I say it all the time. This song is smokin’, great energy. This is what I was hoping to hear from this fight. The change that starts with “and the drinks will pour themselves” for some reason strikes me as odd, not as authentic perhaps? but that’s a minor complaint. This is full of sound and that’s what I likes.
WreckdoM-Craig, the bass player for Rubber Robot, is the sissy man on this. Originally I was planning on doing both voices as is usually the case, but I’m so glad I didn’t. Craig wrote all his best lines including my favorite “Is gin and juice a shot?” and the green drink line which allowed me to mention Lou Ferignou. Thanks Craig, YOU ROCK!

Originally this would have been thematically similar to “The shah sleeps in lee harvey’s grave” by the Butthole Surfers, but changed as we worked on it. I’m not familiar with the song you’re referring to but I’ll look it up.

That’s a great idea, I’m embarrassed we didn’t think of that

I know you are but what am I? I think there’s always room for immaturity in the world of arts and entertainment.

Yeah, that’s pretty much ALL that guy does. Boo hoo hoo, me me me. What a buzzkill.

In general the frequencies are far too strong in the low mid range. Seems like a disease in this fight. I'm down with the three-way cross world collaboration. That shit is hard to do. The song is alright and kind of punk, but I have issues with the lo-fi quality of the song. I think between the three of you, you could have done better on the mix. Makes me want to take a bike chain and kill loud bottom end things.
